A UK charity stands to win a website designed at no charge by web design and development
agency Telset.
Telset founder Mark Howard believes that the mark of an excellent
charity website is that it has saved the cost of employing a fundraising staff member.

Following the recent expansion of his company, Howard is offering to design a website
for a charity at no cost. The prize can be won by telling Mark in no more than 100
words how your organisation would benefit from such a website.

Telset produces bespoke websites from £350, saying that it never use templates purchased
from third parties.

Clients include Blackpool-based SMS Relief Limited, which has built an extensive
opt-in database of mobile phone users that is available to advertisers for the use
of paid Short Message Service (SMS) text advertising. In exchange for accepting 
advertisements on their mobile phones, SMS Relief members receive a payment for 
each message they read, while an equal amount is donated to their chosen charity.

John Ellis, founder of SMS Relief Ltd said: “Telset has totally revamped our website,
as well as improving our database. Not only has the company proved more affordable
than any other I found during a lengthy internet search, but it also provides a 
unique level of support – being on hand 24 hours a day”.

The closing date for the free website competition is 30 May 2005.
